I'm replacing my rocker cover and some of my bolts looks terrible, I'm assuming you have to buy the whole bolt with the rubber it and long thing?

Been searching for the cam cover bolts, I've currently got a plastic cover and switching to a metal cover.

 

Is this a trusted source?

I've got some of those fittings if you don't want to have to buy a whole bag when you only need one. Let me know.

Try dropping those bolts in some gunk/vinegar/somesuch overnight and a quick whisk with a wire wheel in a drill will bring them up good as new.

That's a good idea but I think I need different bolts now as I've found out the metal rocker cover has different bolts to the plastic one. I currently have the plastic and changing to a metal.
